The campaign was launched by Raquel Borges, the owner of Ariel, a three-year-old, 310 pound (140 kilogram) lion that was unable to use his four legs due to a degenerative disease affecting his medulla. Ariel was unable to recover, and passed away a couple of weeks after this photo was taken. (AP Photo/Andre Penner)

30 Years Since the Falklands War

During the 1982 Falklands War, the Argentinian cruiser General Belgrano sinks amid orange life rafts holding survivors in the South Atlantic Ocean, after being torpedoed by the British nuclear-powered hunter-killer submarine HMS Conqueror on May 1, 1982. While Argentine and Chilean ships managed to rescue 770 men, 323 were killed in the attack. (AP Photo)

The British frigate HMS Antelope burning and pouring smoke, sinks in the chilly waters of Ajax Bay in Falkland Sound, May 24, 1982. Four Argentine A-4B Skyhawks attacked the day before, one of them launching a bomb that did not explode, but lodged inside the frigate's hull. While bomb disposal technicians were attempting to defuse the bomb, it detonated, tearing the ship apart and starting massive fires. All but two crew members survived, the ship sank hours later. (AP Photo/Tom Smith)

Kinda feel like that picture should be shown to teenage girls as well. They need to understand they're living up to some ideal that just doesn't exist.

The wonders of makeup and Photoshop. Models aren't always in it for having beautiful faces. At the same time, girls should know that some of those left-hand faces are quite attractive just as they are.

It took me awhile to even figure out what the point of that was. Just a bunch of hot chicks iyam
